Loose-in-the-Street Service Guidelines
- No more than two cubic yards of yard waste material (3’x3’x6’ pile) per collection.
- Additional amounts of material may be picked up for an extra fee. Call in advance to get a quote at 916-808-5454.
- Place pile six feet from any obstruction (cars, boats, basketball hoops, etc.), away from the gutter and out of the bike lane.
- Keep unacceptable materials out of your yard waste pile.
